Abstract (en)

(5-Isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-methanol compound and its enantiomer, preferably two or more mixture of (1S, 2S)-(isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol, (1S, 2R)-(isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol, (1R, 2S)-(isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol and (1R, 2R)-(isopropyliden-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol, is new. (5-Isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-methanol compound of formula (I) and its enantiomer, preferably two or more mixture of (1S, 2S)-(isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol, (1S, 2R)-(isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol, (1R, 2S)-(isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol and (1R, 2R)-(isopropyliden-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-1-methanol, is new. Independent claims are included for: (1) a perfume or aroma material mixture comprising (I) and its enantiomer and one or more further perfume or aroma material, which has a woody and/or a flowery smell and/or taste; (2) a perfumed and/or an flavored article comprising the perfume- or aroma material mixture; (3) preparing (I) comprising either converting 4-isopropylidene-1-methyl-cyclohexene (A) to a (5-isopropylidene-2-methylene-cyclohexyl)-methanol compound of formula (IV) by a Prins-reaction and subsequently selectively, catalytically, hydrogenating (IV) to give (I) or reducing (5-isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-carbaldehyde (B) to give (I) or converting (5-isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-carbonitrile (C) to 5-isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (D) and subsequently reducing (D) to (I), where (B) is produced by converting (A) by hydroformylation or reducing (C); (4) (5-isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-carbonitrile (C) and its syn- and anti-enantiomer; and (5) preparing (5-isopropylidene-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)-carbonitrile (C) comprising carrying out a Michael-addition with subsequent aldol condensation of but-3-en-2-one and propionaldehyde to give 4-methyl-cyclohex-2-enone, adding hydrogen cyanide to 4-methyl-cyclohex-2-enone to give 2-methyl-5-oxo-cyclohexanecarbonitrile and converting 2-methyl-5-oxo-cyclohexanecarbonitrile in Wittig-reaction to give (C).
